We are considering a conversion from Ultrix to 4.3BSD on MVII's. Does anyone have anything good or bad to say about such a move? We have the DEC Ultrix Fortran compiler (not f77 but the VMS compiler ported to Ultrix). Does anyone know whether this compiler (and the associated linker) will run under 4.3BSD? Thanks for any information. Fred Sullivan Department of Mathematical Sciences State University of New York at Binghamton Binghamton, New York 13903 Email: sullivan@marge.math.binghamton.edu

The support from Xinu is far superior to DEC's and the people there actually know what they're talking about ( unlike DEC ). I'm running a Vaxstation II with 4.3 and NFS on a qvss display, and all works well. I can recommend 4.3 from Mt Xinu. Mt Xinu Berkley, CA (415) 644-0146 -- Lawrence A. Dziegielewski | E.I.
